ALEXANDRIA — Alexandria senior running back Terrell Stewart's 3-yard plunge off right tackle into the end zone with 11:54 to play was the only touchdown scored in the Valley Cubs' 9-0 season-opening shutout of Anniston at Lou Scales Stadium on Thursday night.
SAKS — Wellborn scored on the game's first snap Thursday night but it was Saks, Saks and more Saks thereafter as the Wildcats opened the season with a 48-7 win. Ten backs combined for 285 yards rushing and senior quarterback Dakoda Wells passed for another 174 yards.
NEW SITE — This 20-18 win wasn't by two, it was by one. One yard. The Bulldogs stopped Horseshoe Bend's Ethan Carroll at the one — after he gained 79 yards on the play — then put together two goal-line stands to hold off the Generals.
